We should always take the media with a grain of salt, for sure!<br />Thanks for stopping by this morning!<br /><br /><br />Hey Jo...<br />Yep...wasn't very old by our standards.<br />Thanks, sweetie, for dropping by today!<br /><br /><br />Hey Dizzy...<br />Seems like the career choice they made wasn't known for longevity. Longer life than some would expect.<br />Thanks for coming over today!<br /><br /><br />Hey Rob...<br />Probably seemed pretty big back then. I reckon that perceptions change over time.<br />Thanks for the visit today!<br /><br />HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-21718805261491179042016-07-13T08:49:59.436-05:002016-07-13T08:49:59.436-05:00Good story, I'd never heard it before.
I stop...Good story, I'd never heard it before. <br />I stopped at the saloon Hickok was murdered at in Deadwood, it was a tiny room! After all those westerns as a kid I really expected something bigger. The Birdcage Theater in Tombstone was more of what I expected..Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05450082315014407506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-37150357376891822472016-07-13T08:40:05.074-05:002016-07-13T08:40:05.074-05:0039 is pretty old for a gun-fighter.

Profit is more important than the truth which can be dull, boring and not what we want to hear. Sad state of affairs if you ask me. I was fortunate enough to visit the saloon in Deadwood, S.D. where Wild Bill was killed. The people there tell an interesting story about the event.linda mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203742811516417039noreply@blogger.com
